Murder in the Cathedral is a 1962 Australian television play adapted from T. S. Eliot's 1935 play Murder in the Cathedral, about Thomas Becket. William Sterling said he wanted to adapt it for TV for a long time.[2] Australian TV drama was relatively rare at the time.[3]

Reception

The critic for the Sydney Morning Herald though the production "went closer to justifying its two hours traffic... than anyone had a right to expect."[4]

The Bulletin praised the acting but did not think the play was adapted particularly well for television.[5]
